Lucid or Original?

Im from the states and there is a new absinthe product called Lucid and it supposedly developed by T. A Breaux. I was wondering if anyone has tried it and how does it compare to the real/original thing? I would like to know becuase i dont want to waste $60 if lucid is another American knockoff. Thanks.

Absinthe: The symbol of 'la vie boheme' for over a hundred years. More than a century on, the drink still retains its original appeal.
